Conducrete® 55LB bag: is a conductive cementitious and carbonaceous
material that dramatically enhances the performance, reliability and longevity
of grounding systems and cathodic protection systems. The conductive and
insulating materials used in the formulation give it a capacitive nature.
Conducrete® can store and release energy the same way
that a capacitor will store energy until it is grounded or allowed to release
the energy into a circuit. The material absorbs high rise time electrical
surges keeping ground potential rise in check and preventing damage.
